    I've got CLLU, Grizzly Conductonaut, IC Diamond 7, Prolimatech PK7.

    All the resellers seem to use LM on the CPU then ICD on the GPU, any reason for this?

    Conductonaut appears to be the best from reading on here, has anyone repasted yet?

    ICD is great for beginners. It will be a lot better than the stock thermal paste.
